Antipodean artists traditionally head to the large, blockbuster art exhibitions in Europe, to experience the zeitgeist of contemporary art, at least once in a lifetime. In 2017 "the Big Three" - Documenta, Skulptur Projekte Münster, and the Venice Biennale - are in rare alignment and it seems many Tasmanian artists are taking the opportunity to check them out all at once. Our lucky host, Theia Connell happened to be on residency in Athens as Documenta 14 opened.
